A month on from the terrible disaster up in North East Japan there are still areas that are badly affected and where provisions are scarce. There are few shops and supermarkets where people can go to purchase daily goods and the lack of electricity in some areas has made it impossible to strore fresh produce in the places that are open. Convenience store chain, Lawson, have therefore built a mobile convenience store inside a small van making it possible to reach the harder hit areas.
Packed tightly into van proportions the mobile store contains the staples of the everyday convenience store. A nice innovation from Lawson’s, it is equipped with refrigerated units, cooking facilities for the ubiquitous convenience store fried food and even newspaper stands. The mobile store would certainly help to bring a little of normal everyday life to the area. We could actually see this kind of van being popular in the future at festivals and events also, or even in more rural areas where the aging population aren’t as mobile as they used to be.
